Carbon Fiber Round Hollow Tube Weight Calculator:
Enter the values of outer radii, R(cm), inner radii, r(cm) and tube’s length, L(cm) to determine the value of weight of an carbon fiber round hollow tube, W(g).
Carbon Fiber Round Hollow Tube Weight Formula:
The carbon fiber round hollow tube is a structural component renowned for its strength and lightweight properties. The weight of the tube is determined by considering the volume of the material it contains and its density.
The tube is characterized by an outer radius and an inner radius, defining its hollow nature. The volume of the carbon fiber material is calculated by subtracting the volume of the hollow core from the volume of the entire tube. This difference, which represents the volume of carbon fiber, is then used to determine the weight.
A higher density results in a heavier tube for the same volume. Conversely, a lower density reduces the weight, making the tube more lightweight but potentially less strong.
The weight of an acrylic round hollow tube, W(g) in grams is calculated by multiplying the difference between the squares of the outer radii, R(cm) in centimetres and inner radii, r(cm) in centimetres by pi, then multiplying by the tube’s length, L(cm) in centimetres and finally by the material’s density, d(g/cm3) in grams per cubic centimetres.
Weight of an carbon fiber round hollow tube, W(g) = 3.14 * (R2(cm) – r2(cm)) * L(cm) * d(g/cm3)
W(g) = weight of an carbon fiber round hollow tube in grams, g.
R(cm) = outer radii in centimetres, cm.
r(cm) = inner radii in centimetres, cm.
L(cm) = length in centimetres, cm.
d(g/cm3) = density in grams per cubic centimetres, g/cm3.
Carbon Fiber Round Hollow Tube Weight Calculation:
1. A carbon fiber round hollow tube has an outer radius of 5 cm, an inner radius of 3 cm, a length of 200 cm, and a density of 1.6 g/cm3. Calculate the weight of the tube.
Given: R(cm) = 5cm, r(cm) = 3cm, L(cm) = 200cm, d(g/cm3) = 1.6 g/cm3.
Weight of an acrylic round hollow tube, W(g) = 3.14 * (R2(cm) – r2(cm)) * L(cm) * d(g/cm3)
W(g) = 3.14 * (52 – 32) * 200 * 1.6
W(g) = 3.14 * 16 * 200 * 1.6
W(g) = 16075.8g.
2. A carbon fiber round hollow tube weighs 5000 g, has an outer radius of 4 cm, an inner radius of 2 cm, and a density of 1.8 g/cm3. Find the length of the tube.
Given: R(cm) = 4cm, r(cm) = 2cm, W(g) = 5000g, d(g/cm3) = 1.8 g/cm3.
Weight of an acrylic round hollow tube, W(g) = 3.14 * (R2(cm) – r2(cm)) * L(cm) * d(g/cm3)
L(cm) = W(g) / 3.14 * (R2(cm) – r2(cm)) * d(g/cm3)
L(cm) = 5000 / 3.14 * (42 – 22) * 1.8
L(cm) = 7.4cm.
